FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to a structure improvement for adjustable interval of a display frame, especially, for a frame with plural separating boards fixed on the base by fastening structure, and the structure of separating board is stable and difficult to be deformed.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] The more changes of life style of this country people, the more they rely on the convenience store. There are many kinds of display frame for placing the drink cans or bottles in the convenience store. However, there are many shortcomings in the prior display frames (as shown in FIG. 1(A) and FIG. 1(B)). The major defect is each row of the drink cans C is separated by a lateral side A of “

” shape, which is only positioned and fixed by two positioning holes E on both ends. In structure, due to be supported only by two ends located at fore and rear portion of the lateral side A, of which structure is very unstable. And, due to the number of positioning hole E is limited, sometimes, it is difficult to adjust appropriated intervals in accordance with the width of drink cans C. When the width between each lateral side A is wider than the width of the can C, it may result a squeezing and pushing situation for each drink can C and cause the deformation of the drink can C. And, due to the structure of the lateral side A is unstable, it may easily cause the lateral side A deformed and damaged. Additionally, one tri-pass tube B is installed on each lateral side A of the outer portion of the prior art of display frame. By two tri-pass tubes B to connect and fix a metal thread D will prevent the drink cans C from falling down. But since only with two tri-pass tubes B on two sides, and there is no other support between them, the blocking effect is no good and drink cans C will fall down easily, so it is very dangerous.

[0003] In order to improve the shortcomings of above-mentioned prior apparatus, the most distinguished characteristic of the present invention is applying an apparatus of the separating board in lieu of the lateral side A in the prior art. In structure strength, there are more improvements of the separating board of the present invention than the lateral side of prior art. Further, since the separating board is fastened inside the several concave groves on the base, so the distance between the separating boards can be adjusted in accordance with the width of the drink cans C. It is more flexible by comparing with the lateral side of the prior art, which can only be adjusted by the positioning holes on the fore and the back edges of the frame. Furthermore, there is another blocking apparatus of the present invention, which can surely prevent the drink can C from falling down, and which is stronger than the metal thread connected by two tri-pass tubes in prior apparatus, and which may surely improve the shortcomings of the prior art.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0004] The major object of the present invention is to provide a structure improvement of adjustable interval of a display frame. The present invention applies plural separating boards with strong structure, which can be fastened inside the longitudinal concave groves for the adjustment of interval between two adjacent boards to replace the lateral sides of the prior art which can only be fastened in their fore and rear portions.

[0005] The second object of the present invention is to provide a structure improvement of adjustable interval of a display frame, in which fore portion is installed a firm blocking apparatus to prevent placed articles from falling down.

[0006] To reach above-mentioned objects, a structure improvement of adjustable interval of a display frame is composed of a base and plural separating boards. There are plural longitudinal concave groves on the base. Further, perpendicular to the direction of the longitudinal concave groves, there is more than one cross-wise rod on the base. Under the lower end of the separating board further includes more than one fastening block. The shape of the fastening block is “L”, which is used for setting in the cross-wise rod to prevent itself from moving forward and backward and for fastening the separating boards more steady on the base. And, another blocking apparatus is installed at the fore-portion of the separating board, as putting the drink bottles or cans between the separating boards, the blocking apparatus will prevent the drink bottles or cans from falling down.

[0007] To describe more clearly about a structure improvement of adjustable interval of a display frame of the present invention, a detailed explanation in accordance with several diagrams are as following:

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0014] Please refer to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, which are two illustrations for the base 1 and the separating board 2 of the present invention respectively. There are plural rods 13 of identical intervals forming plural longitudinal concave groves 12 on the base 1. The separating board 2 is fixed inside the longitudinal concave grove 12. Under lower end of the separating board, there is more than one fastening block 21. The shape of the fastening block 21 is “L”. The fastening block 21 may be set inside the longitudinal concave grove 12 under the base 1. Perpendicular to the direction of the separation board 2, more than one cross-wise rods 11 are further included inside the longitudinal concave grove 12. The number of the cross-wise rod is greater than one, which is not necessary equal to the number of the fastening block 21. The design of “L”-shaped structure of the fastening block 21 may make itself set inside the longitudinal concave grove 12 and push forward. By the application of the setting of the cross-wise rod on the turning portion of the “L”-shaped design may make the fastening block 21, which set inside the longitudinal concave grove 12, further steady and without back and forth moving. Furthermore, the blocking apparatus of the present invention is composed of several setting-in, hooking groves 22, which are located in the fore portion of the separation board 2 and provide with a blocking rod 3, which is set-in and fixed inside the setting-in, hooking grove 22 of each separating boards 2.

[0015] Please refer to the illustration of the FIG. 4 for the most preferable embodiment of the present invention. The embodiment applies the present invention to place the drink cans C. As shown in the diagram, more than one separating boards 2 are fixed on the base 1 by the fastening blocks 21. The distance between each separating board 2 can be adjusted in accordance with the width of drink cans C. Furthermore, by a blocking rod 3, which is set-in and hooked inside the setting-in, hooking grove 22 in the fore portion of each separation board, it may form a blocking apparatus to prevent the drink cans C from falling down.

[0016] The most distinguished characteristics of the present invention are the longitudinal concave grove 12 on the base and the design of the cross-wise rod 11. Each separating board 2 can be easily pulled off and set in the base 1. Since the design of the number the longitudinal concave grove 12 is plentiful and dense, so the distance and the position of each separating board 2 can be adjusted in accordance with the actual width of the drink cans C to improve the lateral side A of the display frame of the prior art,which separates the drink cans C by positioning the fore and rear positioning holes E. In the prior art, the scope of the adjustable width is limited and causes the drink cans C to be squeezed or loosely arranged. Because most design of the display frame is slanted forward, as the most outer drink can C is taken off, the drink cans C placed in the rear row will slide forward automatically. To prevent the drink cans C from falling down, the setting-in, hooking grove is designed in every fore portion of each separating board 2 of the present invention. With a blocking rod 3 set and fastened inside the setting-in, hooking grove 22 on the fore portion of each separating board 2, it will block the drink cans C from sliding down to ground to improve the shortcomings and insufficiency of the prior apparatus.

[0017] Further, some heights of plural side surfaces of rods 13 are different than others. The rods with different heights (shown as FIG. 5) can be installed with identical intervals based on actual needs. Via the structure, to avoid increasing the width of the concave grove of the present invention, and the friction between
